The problem behind HEPA Air Scrubbing
Even careful removal and cleaning releases fine particles. Many are too small to see and stay airborne for hours. Without filtration, they settle on every surface and travel to other rooms, which is why a room can look clean and still feel dusty or smell stale.
Where HEPA Air Scrubbing fits in Boston
Tight, older Boston homes with winter sealed windows hold air in place, so airborne particles linger. Apartments and condos sharing air paths benefit from filtration that keeps work from drifting to neighbors.
What HEPA Air Scrubbing covers
- Choosing and positioning machines based on the room volume
- Running filtration throughout the work period
- Continuing filtration after cleaning to clear leftover particles
- Changing filters in a controlled way to avoid releasing captured material
- Combining scrubbing with containment and negative air
How the work proceeds, step by step
Size the equipment
Room volume decides how many machines are used and where they sit.
Set up airflow
Machines are placed so air moves through the work zone toward the filter.
Run during the work
Filtration operates throughout demolition and cleaning.
Keep running afterward
Machines continue after cleanup to capture remaining fine particles.
Handle filters carefully
Used filters are sealed and disposed of with minimal disturbance.
Good to know before you call
A HEPA filter is designed to capture the vast majority of very small particles that pass through it. That helps with spores and dust, but air scrubbing does not cure a moisture problem. It works alongside removal, cleaning and drying.
Household air purifiers are much smaller than the machines used in remediation. They can help day to day, but a full work zone calls for equipment sized for the job.
Questions about HEPA Air Scrubbing
Does air scrubbing remove mold from walls?
No. It cleans the air. Surfaces still need removal or cleaning.
How long do machines run?
Through the work and for a period afterward, depending on the room and the conditions.
